\"\"2 Peter (Program #8) – The Divine Government (1)<\/p>\n

The apostle Peter had a strong reaction to the apostasy that were spreading into the church near the end of his life.\u00a0\u00a0 In fact he wrote his two epistles largely as an inoculation against the heretical teachings that were gradually corrupting the\u00a0 faith of the saints.\u00a0 Especially regarding the matter of the Lord’s second coming in glory.<\/p>\n

In 2 Peter, he first gives an eye-witness account of seeing the Lord Jesus revealed in glory as a foreshadow of His promise return .\u00a0\u00a0 Then he points the believers to the word of God, specifically the Old Testament prophecies concerning Christ, as he says in chapter 1:19 “and we have the prophetic word made more firm, to which you do well to give heed as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts;<\/em>”\u00a0\u00a0 But after these two strong encouragements he goes on to speak of the coming judgment of the righteous God especially on those false teachers who were defiling the saints and leading them astray.<\/p>\n
